About this Event
Our Junior Ranger Nature Club will run every Thursday afternoon during the summer holidays. Aimed at children aged 12 years and over, the sessions will cover a range of topics designed to give an overview of what it is like to work as a woodland ranger.
Each session will include an element of work which could include tree maintenance, habitat creation or general woodland maintenance followed by a more in-depth look at how to identify a particular species and undertake surveys related to them.
In this session we'll learn about the different tracks and signs that animals leave behind and how to identify what each animal is.
Further sessions will include:
Session 5 (1st August): Save our Squirrels
Session 6 (8th August): Big Butterfly Count
All six sessions can be booked here
Due to a generous grant from the Scottish Borders Climate Action Network (SBCAN), we are able to offer these sessions at the reduced cost of £5 per session. Every participant will also receive wildlife guides from the Field Studies Council that are appropriate for each session.
All sessions will take place at Mauldsheugh Wood. Please email Lisa on [email protected] if you have any queries regarding these sessions.
